max
Has anyone else noticed that the new v4.0 software for the Garmin 196
adds "support for Obstacle database"? Does anyone know what this means?
Sounds like a potentially valuable upgrade to part of my existing IFR
flight bag. Hmmm...

Common Route from JYO to FRG? by
Marco Leon
Hi all. Can anyone give me an idea of what a common route clearance would be
from the Wash DC area (KJYO) to the Long Island (KFRG) area? I tracked down
a preferred route to the DC area (JFK DIXIE V1 LEEAH V268 BAL KROLL) but I'd
like some ideas from other fliers more familiar with the local...

Planning HPN to SAF by
Tom Fleischman
I'm planning a trip for mid-May from WHite Plains, NY (KHPN) to Santa
Fe, NM (KSF). I'm wondering if anyone here has made a similar flight
and has any advice for me.
I will be single-pilot IFR, will be flying a Beech Debonair and am
planning to file for a TAS of 165kts at 10,000'. I've broken the...

looking trade safety pilot duties (NYC) by
Journeyman
I posted something about this yesterday, but it seems to have gone
into a black hole.
I'm based at HPN, looking for someone in the area to trade safety
pilot duties. Say, once a week in the morning before work.
Anyone?

GPS WEIRDNESS by
Flew my 172M today and experienced some truly bizarre GPS behavior.
On preflight my portable GPS (Garmin 296), with external antenna and
aircraft power securely attached, initialized just fine, acquired
several satellites and went right into NAV mode. After runup and right
before takeoff, it...

Flight tracking by
Nathan Young
Hello. I am looking for websites that provide real time tracking info
on IFR flights,. I would like to allow family to track me when I am
on longer flights.
Free would be best, followed by a per flight charge, followed by
monthly service charge.
Any suggestions.
Thanks,

If anybody is interested, I have shared out a folder on my computer to

it does look real nice in full screen in Windows media.

Real-world IFR currency by
Paul Folbrecht
So, I passed the ride two weeks ago, with about 45 hours simulated
instrument time and a precious 2.5 hours actual. I flew a couple
practice ILS's two days ago, after an "off-period" of less than two
weeks and already felt a bit rusty, though they went Ok (2nd definitely
better than the first). ...

Chuck
Folks,
I'M about to start flying again, and so am giving the 3600a a serious
look! I currently have one of the original 3600, which is nearly
invisible when outdoors.

Requirement to fly Departure Procedures by
[email protected]
The word on the street seems to be that with a departure clearance
from an uncontrolled airfield of "cleared on course" any ODP would not
need to be flown in VMC. . However, I'm not sure how the FAR quote
below, which also applies to Class C and B airspace, supports that.
Clearly, an ODP is...

This was a new one for me.
I was IFR this afternoon out of HPN for short practice flight. I was in
sequence number two at the runway waiting for departure. As the tower
controller cleared the Cessna in front of me to position and hold, he
asked him his direction of flight. The Cessna pilot...
